Android Get current date (with time 0: 00: 000) in Milliseconds?

Question

I would like to get the current date with zero time in milliseconds.

Example: if today is 12:69 pm, I want to get the time in milliseconds for today without time ... that is, the time immediately after midnight (one millisecond or 0 if it works).

I used the Calendar object, but I can’t figure out how to reset the time part.

Answer 1

Here's how to zero calendar time:

Calendar today = Calendar.getInstance(); today.set(Calendar.MILLISECOND, 0); today.set(Calendar.SECOND, 0); today.set(Calendar.MINUTE, 0); today.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, 0); 

Answer 2

And without a calendar:

 long d = new Date().getTime(); int offset = TimeZone.getDefault().getOffset(d); d = ((d + offset)/ 86400000l) * 86400000l - offset;
